Song Remnance after Zoning

This is more EQEMU related, but it seems when you zone with Selo's Accellerando the buff instantly dissipates instead of lasting the duration. If this isn't hard to revert, it would be hugely appreciated due to the high amount of indoor zones we have.

Being able to zipline to a spot I want to be helps me appreciate my bardic attributes that much more.

I'm not sure if this is related to spell block table or whatever it is or hardcoded handling of speed boost/levitate spells with indoor zones. shouldn't be tough, but I won't be able to look at it for a few days. 15 hour workdays = insta bed for me:/

good to know. thanks. Any additional info will be helpful as well!:)
Such as I zoned from zonea to zoneb, both of which are outdoors and should have levitate active. Spell is soandso, etc. ;p Hope you get the message!
Basically, this can help me look in the right direction. bleh could right fixes with no direction in no time flat. I'm not THAT skilled yet;p thanks in advance!

Ok here you go, a complete run down:
1) I play the Song: Selo`s Accellerating Chorus (lasts 2.5 minutes) at Skyshrine as my bard Shin, and the buff sticks/works fine.
2) I zone to Wakening Lands, another outdoor zone, and after zoning the song buff is gone from my buff window.
3) I play Selo`s Accellerating Chorus again at wakening lands, and the buff applies again fine.
4) I zone back to Skyshrine, song buff is gone.
So when zoning between 2 outdoor zones, this specific buff fades. Spirit of Wolf, however, remains.
Another test: Amplification (a singing modifier buff song that lasts 30 seconds), I cast it at Sacred Grove, zone to Ssra Temple, and song is gone. I zoned in less than 30 seconds.
I can test some other long duration songs to see if they're being stripped too if you like? There isn't a ton out there.

Great, thanks. I was concerned it could be an all buff issue. If limited to bards, I'll get to work.

Edited to add - Actually, while we're on it, are there any bard songs that DO NOT fade upon zoning? Thanks in advance,
Mr. Striat

No songs make it through a zone. I don't really need to test this, but if needed I can for reassurance.

I can second that no songs make it. Bard self buffs do, clickies do, but not the songs themselves. I had a bard on SoA and had the same issue that's happening here..was pretty annoying
